>Hi All, I've just copied one of my solutions and all the projects involved to my laptop - when I try to compile the solution on my laptop I get lots of errors stating "Metadata \\myserver\home\projects\..... my.dll" could not be found, I've checked all references in my projects and reset them to look at the new location but still get these errors - where is the compiler getting this info from ?

Should all be coming from the project .csproj file. If the reference is to a specific DLL it will be a ItemGroup/Reference entry, if to a project then in the ItemGroup/ProjectReference section. If they were on the same drive I think the reference is a relative path, if on a different drive then it will be the full path.

But, IAC, if you have reset the references correctly then you shouldn't have a problem :-{
Try rebuilding the projects independently, starting with the ones with least dependencies. That may at least give you a better pointer to the problem areas......
